Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Applied Medical Sciences - Year 2015, Vol 3, Issue 1
Abstract
Electric shock produces a great variety of injuries to body, ranging from a simple tingling sensation to sudden death. Ventricular fibrillation and sudden death are well-known consequences of electrical injury. In addition ischaemic changes, direct myocardial injury and myocardial infarction have also been reported in the past. Idioventricular rhythm is an unreported complication. Hence we report a case of idioventricular rhythm occurring following a high-tension electrical injury.
